I've spent a couple of hours with it, playing the couple of story missions included in the Beta, and a few side encounters - haven't entered the dark zone.
My verdict - It's pretty, quite a recreation of New York, but most of the buildings etc are just solid blocks, so it started feeling a bit samey. The interiors for the story missions are incredible though.
It ran like a dog on my rig, medium settings only got me 25 - 45 FPS. Possibly lack of optimization, more likely lack of an SLI profile leaving me to run it on one GTX670.
The gameplay is fun, although the gunplay is fairly standard stuff. I'm not usually a fan of cover based shooters, I keep getting stuck to things. I feel that it might get a bit boring over time, as most fights play out in exactly the same way.
For me this is not a launch buy. I'll give it a few months, check out the game's longevity, and jump in maybe when it goes on sale.
